Cash back grocery apps are rather new in the last few years. It's kind of like couponing, but you are using your phone to get a discount rather than clipped coupons. However, I must tell you that at this current time you are able to use coupons and the rebate apps to get a discount. I see so many people on Facebook posting about their FREE FOOD hauls. They are able to stack discounts. Some stores allow you to use "store" coupons, printable coupons, coupons you cut from a paper, some stores still double coupons, some stores price match and ALL allow you to submit your receipts to these grocery rebate apps!

If you have a smartphone, either iPhone or Android, download the following apps to your phone to start saving money at the grocery store. This may seem a bit overwhelming if you are new to these apps that pay you cash back for submitting your receipts, but start with one and then add another over time. If you're ready to jump right in and start saving money today, then check out my list below.

Top Cash Back Grocery Apps

1. Ibotta App - Cash Back Offers

Ibotta is the very first grocery shopping app that I recommend downloading from the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store. This app allows you to earn cash back on "any brand" products often. And there is no minimum quantity. For example, if you'd like to purchase 1 banana and Ibotta is offering $0.20 cash back on bananas, then you will earn $0.20 for that banana. It's easy to do a search in the app. Just type in any brand.

Ibotta has cash back offers on so many products from frozen pizzas, spaghetti sauce and veggies to baby diapers, household goods and health & beauty products.

How does it work?
1. Download and open the app
2. Follow the Instructions to setup your account
3. Find offers in the app.
4. Go to the store and shop for those offers you found in the app.
5. Submit your grocery receipt. You will earn $10 for submitting your first receipt. Keep in mind that "any brand" offers do not count toward the $10 bonus. However, you can do the any brand offers and another offer to get your bonus.
6. Wait for your receipt to be approved and cash to be added to your account.
7. Cashout when you have $20 in discounts completed in your account. You can receive a paypal payment OR gift cards are available.

Extras: there are lots of extra bonuses you can earn with this app. There's monthly teamwork bonuses, holiday bonuses and more. Free cash definitely helps the grocery budget!!

2. Fetch Rewards - Submit Your Receipts

Fetch Rewards is the second grocery shopping app I suggest because it's very simple to use. You do not have to search for offers or rebates. You simply submit your receipt and the app calculates the rebates and discounts for you. Sometimes they offer bonuses of up to $1 for each receipt you submit. And you get extra bonus points for purchasing select products each week.

How does it work?
1. Download and open the app
2. Go grocery shopping and save your receipt
3. Submit your receipt through the app
4. Wait for your receipt to be processed
5. Collect your points for each receipt you scan. You need 3,000 points to get a $3 gift card. This app does not have Paypal as an option to cashout your earnings.

BONUS: Signup for Fetch Rewards and get 1,500 points ($1.50) after you submit your first receipt.
Use code: Y2GBD

With these smartphone apps you are literally getting paid to grocery shop. You can use printed coupons or coupons you find in newspaper. You can use store coupons and digital coupons from stores like Meijer and Kroger. Just keep stacking the savings and your grocery bill will shrink super fast!!
